FAQ.
Which devices will it support?
iPhone comes first, followed by planned iPad and Mac support. Android, web, and Windows PC are longer-term plans. No release dates have been set for those platforms.
Where are my formulas stored?
Your formulation records stay on your device by default. Core formula work runs offline without an account or hosted backend. You choose when to export, back up, share, or send content to an external AI.
Can I export my work?
Yes. Formula exports include plain text, Markdown, INCI lists, ingredient pull lists, and tool lists. Local backup and restore are also supported. These are included in all three planned tiers.
How do I get into the beta?
